Rumor has it another Pearson might not live to see Season 3, and This Is Us fans have taken to Twitter to express their anger.

Have you heard the latest drama brewing in the This Is Us universe? In case you missed it, the newest rumors swirling around the Pearson family indicate that the series is gearing up to diagnose a major character with terminal cancer. While that’s simply devastating as it is, thinking about adding even more tragedy to the heaping pile we have just mourned doesn’t make a lick of sense. Well, Refinery29 made sense of it, and they have a theory.

The article published on Refinery29 suggests that the character who will be leaving the Pearson family too soon could be Beth for two reasons. In the flash forward featured in the Super Bowl episode, older Randall 1. doesn’t have Beth by his side and 2. mysteriously keeps his ring finger out of sight. Now, This Is Us fans are quick to pick up clues after the trail of breadcrumbs that led to Jack’s death. Were we supposed to be picking up on something here? Incidentally, fans are on high alert, and they’re not here for the possibility of Beth Pearson dying.

Here’s what This Is Us diehards had to say about the matter on Twitter!

One fan advocated for Randall.

And another for Beth.

One fan caught onto the theory early.

But another was rightfully skeptical.

One fan has had it with heartbreak.

And another isn’t mincing words.

One fan bargained with Miguel’s life.

And another with Kevin’s.

But one fan realized anger over theories has a silver lining.

Then Beth Pearson herself stepped in to offer her gratitude (but zero spoilers).
